  • Publication number: 20070291969
    Abstract: A hearing aid device is provided in which wireless data transmission and reception are established between a first hearing aid and a second hearing aid, worn one on each ear, wherein in a case where wireless transmission and reception are not possible, the first hearing aid and the second hearing aid are switched from a liaison operation mode in which both hearing aids are interactively adjusted to a solo operation mode in which each hearing aid is independently adjusted. In a case where wireless transmission and reception are possible, the first hearing aid and the second hearing aid are switched from the solo operation mode to the liaison operation mode.

  • Publication number: 20070194488
    Abstract: In a multicolored resin molding apparatus, a primary molding is molded while a cavity core having a die surface is held by and between dies provided in a primary molding station, and a secondary molding is molded while the cavity core having the primary molding is held by and between dies provided in a secondary molding station. Further, the cavity core having the primary and secondary moldings is delivered to a die removing station, where a molded product is removed from the dies. Since the cavity core is delivered to the respective stations, there is eliminated the need for use of a large-sized and complicated molding machine and, instead of this, a simple general-purpose molding machine can be used.

  • Publication number: 20050190765
    Abstract: A multicast network system is provided with a multicast network unit that delivers data between independent multicast network domains. The multicast network unit includes an extraction part for extracting a multicast delivery destination address from received data, a holder part for holding conversion data where the multicast delivery destination address corresponds to a delivery source address, and a judgment part for judging whether the multicast delivery destination address is held and outputting the result of a judgment. The multicast network unit also includes a filtering part which, when the result of the judgment is holding, converts the multicast delivery source address to an arbitrary delivery destination address and, when it is non-holding, discards the received data. The multicast network unit further includes a transmitter part for transmitting data containing the converted multicast address to the domain.

  • Patent number: 6781988
    Abstract: A monitoring apparatus and apparatuses to be monitored each have an address holding unit which holds the address of a group to which each apparatus belongs. A data frame to be transmitted between the monitoring apparatus and each of the apparatuses to be monitored includes an identifier which specifies communication between two apparatuses or group broadcast. When the identifier specifies the group broadcast, a group address is put in the data frame. In this manner, a large number of apparatuses which form a large-scale network can be divided into groups, and the group broadcast can be carried out when a plurality of monitoring apparatuses are used for monitoring the apparatuses, thereby eliminating the need of polling.
